Actor Ryu Jin Opens Up About Relying on His BTS Lookalike Sons for YouTube Success

Actor Ryu Jin (55) humorously reveals his reliance on his BTS lookalike sons for running his YouTube channel.

On the upcoming episode of MBC's 'Radio Star,' airing on the 22nd, Ryu Jin, Ki Tae-young, Lucky, and Song Ha-bin will appear in the 'Papa GO! ALL Daddy PROJECT' special.

During the show, Ryu Jin candidly shares the loneliness he feels as the head of his family. He admits, "I talked to AI because I had no one to talk to," and recounts how he even sought advice from AI in preparation for his appearance on 'Radio Star.'

Ryu Jin, known for his steady acting career and clean-cut image, is a familiar face to viewers. With his distinct features and gentle demeanor, he has consistently been recognized as a handsome actor, leaving a mark in various productions. He also gained popularity by appearing on 'Dad! Where Are We Going?' with his eldest son, Im Chan-hyung.

Ryu Jin discusses the reality of relying on his two sons for his YouTube channel's success. He reveals that the view count significantly varies depending on their participation, leading to a competitive atmosphere in the comments section and negotiations over appearance fees.

Additionally, Ryu Jin shares his humorous attempts at using new slang terms like 'Ssakssak Kimchi,' 'Neujot,' and 'Sexy Food.' His unique approach to these terms and his anecdotes about awkward moments during script readings add a touch of realism to the studio's reactions.

'Radio Star' will air on the 22nd at 10:30 PM.
